What is powder coating?

Powder coating is applied as a dry powder (polyester) and then cured in an oven. The part to be coated is grounded and the powder receives an electrostatic charge as it is sprayed and is attracted to ground. This keeps the coating in place until it is oven cured. Most painted metal products are currently powder coated. No hazardous waste is generated in the process. No solvents are used.

What can be powder coated?

Most objects that are powder coated are made of metal. The powder cures at a minimum 350˚F, therefore the product to be coated must be able to handle that temperature. Here are a few:

Sheet metal and metal stamping

Aluminum castings and extrusions

Structural Steel

Patio furniture

Automotive parts and wheels

Ornamental wrought iron

Railing

Marine and boat parts

Bicycle and Motorcycle parts and wheels

Off-road, ATV, and sand-rails

Garden and outdoor equipment

Industrial components

Gym and playground equipment
